SLIDABLE CURRENT COLLECTOR AND METHOD FOR CONTACTING CONDUCTOR RAIL

A slidable current collector has frame formed as central substrate and sloped shoulders on opposing lateral sides of the central substrate. Electrical terminals pass through orifices arranged in at least two rows within the central substrate. At least one bumper is disposed on an underside of the central substrate between the at least two rows. During sliding on a power rail, the electrical terminals contact a rail surface, and the current collector can shift laterally on the rail surface across a distance between the bumper and one of the sloped shoulders. If disengagement of the electrical terminals from the rail surface occurs, angles on the sloped shoulders and the at least one bumper resist excessive lateral shifting and urge the electrical contacts to reengage with the rail surface.

Electrical Vehicle Comprising an Energy Transfer Device

An energy transfer device is configured for electrically connecting an electrical vehicle to a charging station. The energy transfer device includes a lengthwise link having an upper end and lower end and a crosswise link having an upper end and lower end. The lower ends of the lengthwise link and the crosswise link are configured to be arranged on the electrical vehicle slidably in crosswise direction of the electrical vehicle. The upper end of the crosswise link is connected to the lengthwise link between its ends such that, by sliding the lower ends of the lengthwise link and the crosswise link towards each other, the upper end of the lengthwise link will be moved away from the electrical vehicle for connecting to the charging station.

Current Collector
20220131325 · 2022-04-28 · ·

A current collector supplies power to an electrical load movable along a conductor line and includes a movable holder for a contact element whose range of movement is restricted by two mechanical stops, and which is acted upon by a spring arrangement exerting a force in the direction of a first end of its range of movement to force the contact element against a power rail. A damping device is provided, which dampens movement of the holder caused by the spring arrangement in the direction of the first end of its range of movement, when the holder is situated within a predetermined first section of its range of movement, which is restricted on one side by the first end and does not include the entire range of movement. The damping device can be designed as a flow damper or a friction damper or as at least one spring element.
